I have this, and I'd love to add an electric "assist" to it. Right now I am changing it from a 1 speed to a 3 speed, the hills were killing us. I'm thinking large scale RC aircraft motor or battery power tool motor and batteries. Aero would not be needed as the top speed would not be high enough to warrant it. Maybe a solar panel roof to keep the sun off in the summer.
